Considering the domination of the Falcons during the Sean Payton-era, it's absolutely no surprise that the Saints took home the Week 1 victory. How the win was achieved may be a surprise to many, but not to me - nor should it be to the readers of this blog. Sean Payton's teams show their true colors in the preseason.

The most intriguing aspect of this match up against the Falcons was how the Saints defense was going to handle an offense that seemed perfectly catered to exploit their...

I want to start off by giving thanks to everyone who's read my first few blogs. I didn't realize they would get that much attention.

I'm new to this blog-thing, but I figured I'd start contributing to this site more. I'm sad that I've neglected it. Anyways, here goes...

I remember when we won the Superbowl. It was one of the most redeeming nights of my life. Like many die-hard Saints fans, I suffered through a lot of rough seasons.
